UTR #57

Mike REAL is a Christian hip hop artist who recently recorded a new project w/Flame.

The questions we discuss are:-the new album: its theme and songs
-the importance of revival in church history
-cultural engagement and the church
-communicating doctrine for the streets
-putting gospel in gospel rap

It’s important we pay attention to words in music. We should fill ourselves with words that help us focus on God’s glory. Pastor Vermon’s “Gospel Through Rap” sermon shows how hip hop music can be used for evangelism, education and edification.

BONUS: praise and worship rap songs recorded live Sunday morning at Roosevelt Community Church as part of this sermon series!

UTR#37

Our guest is a Utah-based Christian rapper (he raps our intro song). We chop it up on Mormon hip hop, the LDS “mainstreaming” project, BYU and Provo, Utah culture. We focus on LDS rap and minorities in the Mormon community. We end with a Star Trek rap parody song by a Mormon rapper – true story.
